An ambitious droplet found its chance
Announced in lieu of a pebble's advance
The water nymphs prepared to fight
With tiny ripples and oppose the mightThey pulled and tugged at the surface then
Disrupting the peace of the water realm
The battleships loaded with cannonballs
Bubbled to the top singing battlecallsThe surface fishes dived in deep
The coral planktons emerged to peep
The grain of sand that lost its way
Found its comrade on that dayThe fairies lured with fake sunshine
Trapped in the water, sparkling, divine
Admiring their selves, now, distorted with waves
Avenged their honour as beauty slavesThe tiny droplet squeaked in delight
As the enemy came to the army's sight
It burst and shot straight in the air
Missed its target fair and squareThe sunlight bounced from its back
The wind pierced like a lost thumbtack
It flew away into dry inland
Adventure waiting beyond the sand
